What kind of a hotel provides biscuits in the room but not basic bathroom consumables. Several lights in the room blown making it dark and dingy, especially the bathroom which gets no natural light. The double windows which are large enough for half a dozen people to walk through (they really are massive), have no locks on them, as in, the locks have been removed. Having stayed there for work several months ago I mentioned this issue to them (it seems none of the windows lock) and still, several months on, nothing has been done about it. Mediocre customer service, zero social distancing (there was a disco downstairs the night I stayed) with kids and drunk people running around, none of the staff were wearing masks or again practising social distancing. A bit dirty, a bit run down (buckets were out in the lobby/reception when I arrived because the roof was leaking and was when I stayed there previously), crappy staff. I wouldn't stay again.

Avoid at all costs !
We booked to stay at this hotel for my father in laws funeral , being 6 months pregnant and with my fiancé and two young children this ‘family room’ looked the ideal location . How wrong we were ! The hotel was old and shabby and nothing like advertised on the website . The room was filthy , floor boards creaked and felt spongy . The shower was not fit for purpose a trickle of water out of a shower head is not acceptable ! Tiles were covered in dust the sink backed up every time it was used and the toilet looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in months . Before we arrived at the hotel I rang ahead to enquire about an iron and was assured we would have one in our room . There wasn’t one . It took three more times in asking for an iron to be bought to our room after advising the receptionist we would be late for the funeral if it was much longer . The receptionist bought it up herself in the end. One of my children and I were bitten in the night too . The cleanliness overall was unsatisfactory when looking out of our window smashed plant pots , debris and litter was all over the flat roof making our view unsightly ! Overall what was already an emotional time was made 100 times worse staying at this hotel .
